For Mac users, here’s a way to get rid of those old locked M4P music files, converting them into more versatile MP3 files, using iMovie and iTunes.
on 12/3/2008
I am fond of TuneClone as it applies the virtual cd burning tech. it helps to speed up the conversion process. Also no real disc required.

Just tested NoteBurner on both the Windows and Mac systems, worked fine on both systems. The converting speed is amazing, and the output mp3 files quality makes no difference with the original m4p files. I will consider to purchase it later for converting my iTunes library...

I am using TunePat. Alhough it is not as famous as NoteBurner, it is a wonderful protected music converting tool in all respects concerning the user interface, converting speed, output file quality, etc. Highly recommended!

8 steps is too complicated, I got a converter which can convert M4P to MP3 and M4V to MP4 with only 3 steps:
Add files->Choose output format->Conversion

I found an excellent conversion software - TuneCab Ultra! It can convert protected and unprotected audio, video, extract sound from video, remove DRM, download and convert video from YouTube etc. Easy to use all in one software! http://www.tunecab.com

You need not CD burner at all. Just directly convert iTunes protected music following the guide http://www.m4ptomp3.net
You can convert 9 files at the same time with the 3x speed.
Burn the track(s) to a compact disc and make sure that you burn an audio CD and not a data CD.
Use the iTunes to access the audio CD and add the media files to the library.
Right click the media file and select 'Convert Selection to MP3'.
If you've a large number of media files to be converted to MP3 format then you may even use a CD Emulator to simulate a real CD burner to avoid the multiple CD-R discs.

I still prefer TuneClone. It is very professional, powerful yet easy to use. It can help to remove the DRM protection mechanism and convert both protected and unprotected music files with rather high quality and very fast speed by automatically generating a virtual CD burner.
